Starting today, Amazon has discounted this Refurbished Epson Home Cinema LS11000 4K PRO-UHD Laser Projector to $2,799.99. It's sold and shipped by Amazon and carries a 90-day return policy. That's a great deal considering the fact that this projector retails for $4000 new and discounts are few and far between. This is one of Epson's highest end projectors; it's a significant upgrade over the venerable 5050UB thanks to its long lasting laser array light source, high refresh rate, and 4-way pixel shift 4K resolution while still maintaining excellent contrast ratio and black levels.
Epson Home Cinema LS11000 4K Laser Projector
The Epson Home Cinema LS11000 is one of the best projectors for displaying 4K content at this price point. This is a 3-chip LCD projector that uses 4-way pixel shifting to achieve a simulated 4K resolution. Don't fret about it not being native 4K (which would run you thousands more) because the technology is incredibly good; at standard seating distance it's nearly indistinguishable to a native 4K image and a heck of a lot sharper than a traditional 1080p image. The LS11000 is also easy to position thanks to its 3-way motorized lens shift.
The LS11000 uses a laser array light source that lasts well over 20,000 hours compared to a traditional lamp bulb that needs to be replaced every 3,000 hours or so. Bulbs aren't cheap either, so your savings can be substantial over time, if you use your projector on a regular basis. The LS11000 also boasts a 2500 lumen brightness rating which doesn't diminish over time unlike with a projector that uses a lamp bulb. This allows it to maintain excellent contrast ratio and black levels that rival the 5050UB over the entire lifespan of the laser array.
The LS11000 has been updated with specs that make it gaming-worthy. It supports 4K @ 120Hz gaming over HDMI 2.1, which is great for current gen PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X consoles as well as gaming PCs equipped with an RTX 40 series or AMD Radeon RX 6800 or newer GPU.
At $4000, many reviewers praised this projector for its excellent value. To get this kind of performance and features from other brands could cost you thousands more. Fortunately for you, as long as you're willing to try out a refurbished model, you're getting a significantly lower price with this deal. It's covered by Amazon's 90-day warranty (you can return or replace it anytime during this period).
